TNA Impact Wrestling Results – 8/26/15 (GFW Attacks)

Impact opens up with the Hardyz in the ring talking about Matt’s Full Metal Mayhem with EC3. Matt says that match could have went either way and he says that he feels like right now he is the man to carry TNA into the future. He says that he is coming for EC3’s title and he says he wants one more title shot.

EC3 comes out with Tyrus and he says that in 1999 when he was just a kid he was there live watching the Hardyz in a Ladders Match so to have the opportunity to share that sort of match with Matt he couldn’t have been more… DISSAPOINTED! He calls the Hardyz the “grovler and the gimp” now and he says that Matt put his best effort in only for EC3 to go into “God Mode” one more time and yet again come out victorious.

Jeff says that EC3 needs to explain to the fans why he is such a jackass but EC3 says he is the franchise of TNA not a jackass and that title on his shoulder proves it. EC3 says he is in the position that Jeff should be in but Jeff is just a daredevil that can’t even stick a landing now. He says that next time Jeff wants to be in the hospital just let him know and he will put him in it for a broken face instead of a broken leg. Jeff says he isn’t cleared to wrestle but he will knock the hell out of EC3 right now.

EC3 says that since he is a giver if the fans chant “Matt for Champion” then he will give him another shot. The fans chant it and EC3 says he will do it if Matt and Jeff agree to one stipulation. If EC3 wins then Jeff must become EC3’s own persona assistant. EC3 taunts Jeff by telling him he will be washing his car and cooking his meals for him. He says that Matt can either take it or leave it and then leaves the ring.

Josh and Pope discuss the show tonight and they reveal that Dixie Carter and Jeff Jarrett are both here tonight. Pope says that ever since Jeff has been in charge GFW vs. TNA has been off the chart. Josh says that in the Main Event four former champions will face off in a Fatal 4-Way with the winner earning a shot at PJ Black for the King of the Mountain TItle.

A video package highlighting the horrible feud between EY and Chris Melendez is shown.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Backstage EC3 says that Matt is granted his rematch but when he beats Matt fair and square he doesn’t want to hear him whining about it. He welcomes Jeff to Team EC3 and he can’t wait to have him as his personal assistant.

Dixie comes out and she says that successful companies have one thing in common and that is that management working as a team. Dixie says that it was great to see Jeff come back to TNA earlier this Summer but she was shocked that it actually came together. She says that she was the happiest person to see it happen though and now she has a very important decision about their future.

Jeff comes down to the ring and this new relationship between he and TNA came out of the blue. Jeff says he founded TNA but it was the years that came after that which made TNA special. He says that he called TNA home for over ten years and then after the whole situation with Bully Ray he knew she needed help and he is thankful that she realized it. He says that GFW and TNA working together is a “win, win, win” because it helps TNA, GFW, and the fans all. He says he wants to see this thing keep growing and Dixie says the last few weeks have exceeded her expecations. She says that he and the GFW roster has been great to work with and she believes that when they work together they are unstoppable.

Drew Galloway comes out and tells Dixie to stop because he has something to tell her right now that he just found out.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Drew says that recently there has been some very strange things going on even though there has been some great things going on with the TNA-GFW rivalry. Drew says that Jeff is a legend and the father of TNA so he respects him but there has been a dark cloud hanging over the Impact Zone. Drew says that first Bully was attacked and then he was attacked with no clues or no witnesses. Drew says that twenty minutes ago he found out something that sheds some light on the darkness. Drew says he put his Criminalogy degree into effect for the first time in his life and he found security footage. He says that you don’t see any faces but you do see rental cars as the getaway care and both situations the cars are rented to Jeff Jarrett!

Drew says that Jeff has everything to gain in this siutation: Bully out of the way and he gets the power and Drew out of the way one of his guys wins the KOTM Title. Jeff swears on his, his wife, and his kids lives that he didn’t have a damn thing to do with it. Drew says that if Jeff lies to him and he sees it in his life he will drop him where he stands. Drew says that if it wasn’t Jeff then who could it have been. Before anyone can say anything else Karen Jarrett comes out saying that it was her!

Karen says she did this for Jeff as he looks shocked. She says that she did this for GFW but Jeff says he didn’t ask her to do this. Karen says that he deserves it because he started this company and sometimes one little spark can cause a giant inferno. Jeff looks at Karen and then looks over at Dixie and over at Drew. Jeff kicks Drew in the nuts as the rest of the GFW runs down and beats Drew down! Jeff says that he looked into Karen’s eyes and sometimes a man has to do what a man has to do! Members of the TNA roster hit the ring and a huge brawl erupts! Jeff chokes Drew with a cane while the GFW roster beats down the TNA guys (Rockstar Spud, Mark Andrews, and The Wolves).
